Loving my FL2 (Advises much appreciated)

Hi folks!

This is my beauty (see pics).

Unfortunately the previous owner, besides mechanical maintenaince and switching the engine, he didn't take good care of the interior.

Steering wheel looks wasted (it has a cover), there is a hole in the copilot seat, and the fabrics in the driver side door it's awful.




Key plastic cover are really destroyed (worse in 1 of the pair I got). So I also ordered the new covers.

If anyone have any advise about maintenaince, and/or specially about the seats or where to get the original ones (sand fake leather + blue cloth in the middle)... Help will je much appreciated.

Thanks in advance for this adventure along the way with all of you. FL2 TD4 2.2 SE (2008)

"switching the engine" Shocked

Sounds like the previous owner didnt too much care of the rest of the car either.

How many km has it done and what engine does it have now ?

The LR service schedules are easily found on the internet if you dont have copy. Jules

Thanks everyone.

I'll probably change the side indicator. Good advise.

About the engine. Same engine, now with about 15 miles on it. It got much more maintenaince services in turbo, and everything else when the engine was changed. I just did a service on my own mechanic just to be sure everything was perfect under the hood.

The car has aproximately 150.000 miles on its back. It looks new, 'though. FL2 TD4 2.2 SE (2008)

Yes, it does look very good on the outside. Strange how it became so worn on the inside. 1982 RR Classic-converted to 200TDi-gone
